This article is about old AJR content that is considered lost. Recordings of it may still exist on the internet, but adding them to this wiki is strongly discouraged as the band no longer wishes for the content to be publicly available and it will likely be taken down.
"My Very First Love Song" was the eighth track on one of AJR's old albums, Born and Bred. It was deleted after the release of the I'm Ready EP, and most recordings of the song have been taken down.
Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
I know I'm not your typical boy
I know I'm not your typical boy
But you ain't so typical yourself, you know (woah)
But none of it will last
When I think about the past and how we were such good friends
Oh, but all I do is cry when I think about "goodbye"
Because everyone deserves a second chance
[Chorus]
There's a reason why I always look away
When you're talking 'bout the boys that take your breath away
Let me live inside her arms
And let me tell her one more time
That she's the only one
She completes my very first love song
[Verse 2]
I know you've heard it all before
I mean, how cliché to write a song
'Bout the girl that keeps you strong, and I
I know I'm not your first choice
But it's not the time I hear you say
"I never liked you in that way"
Oh, but none of it will last
When I think about the past and how we were such good friends
Oh, but all I do is cry when I think about "goodbye"
Because everyone deserves a second chance
[Chorus]
There's a reason why I always look away
When you're talking 'bout the boys that take your breath away
Let me live inside her arms
And let me tell her one more time
That she's the only one
She completes my very first love song
[Bridge]
She's the one I'm thinking of
And worst of all, I think I'm in love
Kyra was the kind of girl who understands
Just what you meant
She leaves me stumbling to go back and try again (woah)
[Chorus]
There's a reason why I always look away
When you're talking 'bout the boys that take your breath away
Let me live inside her arms
And let me tell her one more time
That she's the only one
She completes my very first love song
I know I'm not your typical boy
